🐢 Riffing on Ivan Reese's Hest via Kartik Agaram

🧵 conversation

I spent some time recently riffing on (what I understand of) Ivan Reese's Hest.

To try it out after watching the video:

git clone [https://github.com/akkartik/mu](https://github.com/akkartik/mu)

cd mu

./translate hest-life.mu

qemu-system-i386 -enable-kvm code.img

Works best in Linux, though other Unix platforms will also work at a pinch. You'll need to translate_emulated rather than just translate, which is much slower. You'll also need to remove -enable-kvm and potentially replace it with some other type of Qemu acceleration.

📝 Making live repls behave via Jamie Brandon

🧵 conversation

The Light Table Clojure Instarepl tended to get stuck in infinite loops, or use all your memory and crash everything. I've been playing around with solutions for better behaved live repls.

Thinking Together

💬 Breck Yunits

🧵 conversation

An interesting quote from an HN thread about Xanadu "The brilliance of TBL is the W3 is half assed in just the right ways to make it not yet another unused visual language or mind map format." What's a term for "half assed in just the right ways"? Is there really such a thing?

📝 Dimensions of Speed via Breck Yunits

🧵 conversation

Another good quote from a few months ago on HN:

Speed has a moral dimension: to be fast is to be in tune with the facts of the world as it truly is, as the Atman has provided, without illusion.

Speed has a social dimension: to make the user wait unnecessarily is to express disrespect, even contempt.

Speed has an architectural dimension: to be fast, the operations have to match the parts of the system and their relationships.

Speed has a spiritual dimension: to achieve speed demands that you humble yourself before the structures of the machine as it truly is, not some comfortable abstraction.

💬 Daniel Garcia

🧵 conversation

Lately, I have been thinking about how to do some programming without screens.

I came up with a representation of Nodes & wires with Lego's.

If each function and constant has it's own color, I can represent the average function like this.

📝 HotOS: Workshop on Hot Topics in Operating Systems via Jack Rusher

🧵 conversation

The 2021 edition of HotOS (hot topics in operating systems) program was just wrapped up (conference is in a week or so). This paper on Aurora, an experimental single level store, seemed like it would be interesting for this audience:

We present the Aurora single level store (SLS), an OS that simplifies persistence by automatically persisting all traditionally ephemeral application state. With recent storage hardware like NVMe SSDs and NVDIMMs, Aurora is able to continuously checkpoint entire applications with millisecond granularity. The Aurora Operating System

🎼 Moving past Airflow: Why Dagster is the next-generation data orchestrator via Srini Kadamati

🧵 conversation

Dagster and Apache Airflow are 2 popular data pipeline / orchestration tools in the data space (which I live / breathe in!). It was interesting to see Scratch-like blocks in the UI (although its not Scratch like interaction)
